By dinner time, Fu Shizhe and Yunli finished their paper plan for today and drove to a mall near West China University of Technology for dinner.
Fu Shize: "What do you want to eat?"
The hot barbecue restaurant was filled with people and aroma. Yun Li stared at it for a long time, swallowed his saliva, and said, "Have some porridge."
After finding a famous porridge shop, Fu Shi took a number and had to wait for ten tables. Seeing Yun Li rubbing his stomach with hunger, he asked, "Let's go to another one?"
"No." Yunli pinched the flesh on his waist and said, "From now on, if you want to drink coffee on an empty stomach, we will drink porridge all day."
Fu Shi wanted her to have dinner earlier, so he pointed out the loophole in her words: "I didn't drink at noon."
She insisted: "Then I'm talking about the future!"
He went back to what he said at the beginning: "Then you don't have to eat porridge tonight."
Yunli stared at him and felt that he was being a little argumentative tonight.
Unable to argue with him, she relaxed her brows and said, "Then I just want to drink porridge."
Her tone was a little coquettish, and Fu Shi laughed and pulled her to the dessert shop next door, intending to find a place for her to fill her stomach first.
He caught a glimpse of a figure out of the corner of his eye, and stopped, his eyes fixed on Zhou Tiao who was several dozen meters away. He and several colleagues were rushing to the hot pot restaurant.
He paused for a moment, took a step in that direction, and when he saw Zhou Tiao enter the hot pot restaurant, he retracted his step.
Yun Li had made an appointment with Zhou Tiao to meet tomorrow, and she didn't expect to run into him in the mall. She noticed Fu Shizhe's actions and directly pulled him to the hot pot restaurant.
After finding a seat and sitting down, Yunli ordered a double pot.
"Do you want to see him?"
"Yeah." He paused for a moment and continued, "But we haven't been in touch for a long time."
He looked up at Yunli. She was thinking about something. She suddenly stood up and said, "I'm going to get the seasoning."
Yunli went to the seasoning area to get some seasonings. After searching for Zhou Tiao's table, she found that it was full of people chatting animatedly. Every step she took closer, she prepared herself mentally until she met Zhou Tiao's gaze.
She quickly left the scene with a "Team Leader, my boyfriend and I are having dinner here."
After she returned to her seat, not long after she sat down, Zhou Tiao found this table.
Yunli used the excuse of going to the bathroom to leave the two of them alone.
Zhou Tiao looked Fu Shize over and over again, and covered his mouth as if he found it funny: "There hasn't been much change in these years, he's still so pale and thin."
When Fu Shizhe first met them, he was still a teenager with straight and slender limbs. In addition, he had been practicing badminton since he was a child, so his legs were white, tender and long, and his tendons were well-proportioned.
In the past, they always teased Fu Shizhe for being like a girl.
Because he was teased so much, Fu Shizhe almost never wore shorts during his undergraduate years until his body shape was basically set in adulthood.
Fu Shizhe's gaze shifted to Zhou Tiao's fat belly. His limbs were normal, but his abdomen was a little fat due to sitting in the office for a long time.
"How much does it weigh?" This question hits the point.
Zhou Tiao raised his eyebrows: "One hundred and sixty, how much do you want?"
Fu Shi said calmly: "It doesn't make much difference."
"Don't give me that." Zhou Tiao pushed him gently. "With your body shape, you haven't eaten enough in all these years. All your meals are in vain."
"Fu Shi Ze, you haven't talked to your former roommate for three fucking years." Zhou Tiao smiled and sat directly opposite him. Fu Shi Ze was silent for a while and said, "Sorry."
Zhou Tiao was stunned for a moment, amused by his seriousness. He shook his five fingers and said nonchalantly, "Okay, stop being so hypocritical like a woman. Let's call it a day."
As if nothing had happened, the two of them were still getting along the same way as before. Zhou Tiao bit his e-cigarette and asked him, "Did anyone tell me last time that you started smoking?"
"I quit. My girlfriend doesn't like it."
Fu Shi glanced towards the door and saw that Yun Li had not returned yet.
"Oh, that girl just now. She will graduate next year and join our group." Zhou Tiao thought of Yun Li's resume and suddenly asked, "Is that girl four or five years younger than us?"
Fu Shize: “Yeah.”
Zhou Tiao took a breath and said, "Junior high school girl?"
Fu Shi glanced at him and said, "Yeah."
Zhou Tiao laughed: "Beast."
“…”
The two chatted for a while, and Zhou Tiao asked, "Would you like a drink?"
Seeing Fu Shize's hesitation, Zhou Tiao said with a wicked smile: "You are too henpecked. Didn't I tell you at the time that with your temper, your wife will definitely control you tightly in the future?"
Fu Shi said calmly: "No."
Seeing him looking down at his phone, Zhou Tiao asked, "What are you ordering? White drink." It seemed that he had no intention of going back to his table.
"No." Fu Shi replied casually, "Ask your girlfriend if she can drink it."
“…”
Yunli was wandering around the mall bored when he received three messages from Fu Shizhe.
【Zhou Tiao wants to drink.】
【Drink white wine.】
Two minutes later, he sent another message to explain his innocence.
[It’s not that I want to drink. ]
Yunli clenched her phone and pursed her lips. Drinking alcohol is bad for the stomach, and she wanted to rush back to stop him. After standing there for a while, her hands gradually loosened.
Zhou Tiao should be one of the few good friends of Fu Shi Ze. For Fu Shi Ze, he unilaterally ended the friendship due to his own reasons - he felt guilty.
After returning to sit next to Fu Shi Ze, she saw that Zhou Tiao was already drunk, and the wine in Fu Shi Ze's glass was still untouched. Yun Li took the initiative to say, "You guys drink, I'm driving, so I won't drink."
Hearing this, Fu Shi picked up the cup and clinked it with Zhou Tiao.
The two of them were a bit casual when chatting, and Fu Shi was not as talkative and taciturn as he usually was in the laboratory. Yun Li consciously did not interrupt. Feeling something in her hand, she lowered her head.
Fu Shi held his chin and talked to Zhou Tiao, while his hand gently squeezed her palm.
After drinking half a bottle, Zhou Tiao directly ordered a large plate of chili peppers and poured it into one of the two pots.
Yunli was about to stop him, but Zhou Tiao said familiarly, "Xiao Li, don't look at him like that. He doesn't feel spicy at all. In the past, we would eat until we were sweating and our mouths were swollen, but he would continue to eat calmly."
He held chopsticks and talked to Yunli: "Once I was pursuing a girl, and we had a crush on each other, so we had a spicy hotpot meal in our dormitories. The spiciness made me cry and snot all over my face. The problem was, this girl sat next to me."
"He also passed me tissues from time to time." Zhou Tiao remembered something else, "Normally, we don't look that different."
Yunli glanced at Zhou Tiao, then at Fu Shizhe, and thinking that a lover’s eyes see beauty in everything, he said nothing.
"After that spicy hotpot meal, other girls ignored me and said I was ugly." Zhou Tiao said while laughing, "At that time, Fu Shizhe actually said to me - wasn't she telling the truth?"
Fu Shi glanced at him speechlessly.
Yunli found it hard to imagine this scene. She was too embarrassed to reply and just lowered her head and smiled.
"But he still has a conscience. The next day, he brought a few brothers to post a lot of messages about me on the school forum, saying that I was the most handsome guy in the school." Zhou Tiao took a sip of his drink and said casually, "In the end, the girl and her roommate posted a lot of messages below, and they only posted one sentence--"
"Zhou Tiao is the most handsome boy in the school, and his roommate Fu Shi is the most handsome boy in the school and the country. Damn, there are six or seven exclamation marks after every sentence."
“…”
Fu Shi took his wine glass and said, "Drink less."
Seeing that Fu Shize only took food from the clear soup pot, Zhou Tiao said disdainfully: "It's only been a few years, and you can't even eat spicy food?"
"His stomach isn't feeling well." Yun Li explained for Fu Shi Ze.
Zhou Tiao frowned and said, "You are so young and yet you have a bad stomach," but he turned the soup pot towards Fu Shizhe and stopped adding wine to him.
After the meal, Zhou Tiao had completely collapsed. Yun Li stared at them, while Fu Shi seemed to be still half awake. He directly lifted Zhou Tiao up and said, "Let's go."
Yunli: "Do you know where he lives?"
Fu Shize was already a little slow and put Zhou Tiao back to his original position a beat late.
“…”
Fu Shi opened the tb in Zhou Tiao's phone and glanced at the delivery address. His vision was a little unfocused, so he handed the phone directly to Yun Li.
After sending Zhou Tiao home, Yun Li looked at Fu Shi Ze. Perhaps because of the high alcohol content of the liquor, a few centimeters on both sides of his face were slightly red, and his body was a little unstable.
Yunli held his waist and let him sit in the passenger seat.
She had just started the car when Fu Shi held her wrist, unbuckled her safety buckle, and pulled her over. His kiss was a little aggressive, and his embrace seemed to completely occupy her. Yunli was dizzy from his kiss, and when he let go, she heard him gently say——
"Lili."
"Thanks."
…
The two walked to Fu Shizhe's dormitory door. He fumbled for the key in his pocket but couldn't find it for a long time.
Seeing this, Yunli reached into his pocket. His campus card, cell phone, and keys were all in one pocket. She tried to pull the keys out, but Fu Shi held her hand and said with a smile, "Don't do it."
Don't do...
Yunli was confused and could feel the rising temperature of his body through the thin fabric in his pocket.
Feeling that he had no control over himself at all, Yunli said angrily: "I'll just take a key."
Fu Shi laughed softly, "Too close."
Yun Li had just inserted the key into the door lock when a male voice suddenly came from the corridor: "Senior Brother!"
Her body stiffened and she looked at Fu Shizhe. He stood a little straighter and moved his indifferent gaze to the side.
Lin Jingran raised his hand to greet him, and noticed Yunli standing next to him. The two were about to enter the door. Lin Jingran's expression was indescribably strange, with a little envy and a little teasing: "I just said hello when I have nothing to do. I hope I didn't disturb you."
At this moment, Yunli just wanted to find a hole to crawl into.
After entering the door, she remembered what the other party had just said, which meant - I hope I didn't disturb you.
This is what they think they are going to do.
Fu Shi slowly walked to the bed and sat down.
"Does your junior brother think we should do something?"
Fu Shi glanced at her and nodded.
Yun Li felt aggrieved and blushed, "Why don't you explain? Just tell him that you drank too much and I'll take you back. Will he tell others? Will he think you're a casual person?"
Fu Shi chuckled, feeling stuffy, and tugged at his collar, responding, "It's not like I'm bringing anyone else back."
"It's just that we're in school, and this isn't very nice."
Fu Shi tilted his head and thought for a while, then said slowly: "But it seems we didn't do anything."
Seeing Yunli still looking at him persistently, Fu Shize's eyes met hers, his head barely moving, and he gave in: "Talk to him tomorrow."
Yunli was relieved, and Fu Shi chuckled and reminded her: "But he won't believe it."
“…”
Yunli stared at him, feeling that his tone and laughter were extremely bad.
Fu Shi placed the pillow against the wall and leaned against it with his back. His neck was also a little red, and when he raised his eyes, he met hers with an unfathomable emotion.
It was a small space with only two people.
He smelled of alcohol, but he didn't lose his composure. Fu Shize's skin was extremely white, and the blush on his cheeks reminded Yun Li of the flowers swaying on the high hills.
The alcohol made his eyes a little blurry, and he looked at her quietly with an indescribable temptation.
Yunli stared at his torn collar, and could see his collarbone. She bit her lower lip and said, "Since everyone else thinks we will do something, wouldn't it be a loss if we do nothing?"
Fu Shi laughed but said nothing.
Yunli crawled to the bed, slowly approached him, naturally held his face, and kissed the corner of his lips. Her black eyes were dotted with a little affection, and he did not make any radical moves, but leaned his head against the wall, passively accepting her kiss.
She moved closer, sitting directly on his lap for comfort, her knees pressing the sheets on both sides of his body. Yunli could clearly feel his reaction, the taste of alcohol between his lips and teeth, and her body was getting hotter and hotter.
She was wearing a loose dress. When she sat on him, Yunli was still kissing her passionately. She felt Fu Shizhe's hand moving up along her ankle, across her smooth calf, pushing up the skirt at her waist, and then pinching her waist.
Yunli breathed rapidly, and with the last bit of rationality, she grabbed his hand behind her waist and whispered, "No, we have to stay in school."
Fu Shi lowered his eyes and looked at her posture. He just smiled softly with a hint of condemnation in his eyes, but he had no intention of forcing her and took his hand back.
Yunli's face flushed red. She originally just wanted a kiss and a hug, but it seemed like she had gone too far.
"Uncomfortable." He said in a hoarse voice.
Yunli was startled: "Where do you feel uncomfortable?"
Fu Shize paused, then laughed and said, "Get me a pair of pajamas."
Yunli stood up immediately and walked to the closet before she realized what he meant by his discomfort. She flipped through the clothes and found that the gray scarf she had knitted for him was put in a dust bag and hung in the closet, where it was carefully preserved.
Yunli took out a set of loose pajamas and handed it to him.
"Wait a moment, I'll go downstairs and buy you a bottle of milk to sober you up."
Without waiting for Fu Shizhe to refuse, Yun Li hurriedly ran out of the door and downstairs. Thinking of what had just happened, she felt her legs go weak.
Just now! What happened!
After buying a few bags of milk and heating them up, she returned to the dormitory. Fu Shi had already changed into pajamas and was lying on the bed, wanting to sleep.
After staying with him for a while, Yunli got up and left when he was almost sober.
Before leaving, Yun Li reeked of alcohol and muttered to himself, "I wonder if I'll be charged with drunk driving today if I run into a traffic police officer blowing my breath."
“…”
Fu Shi sat back down.
He hadn't had a drink in quite some time.
Zhou Tiao would remind him of Jiang Yuan, and he didn't want to have any contact with that past. He almost never replied to Zhou Tiao's messages of concern for him, or responded perfunctorily.
The two have been on the same team for seven years and the other considers him a close friend.
That period of depression did hurt a lot of people.
Seeing Zhou Tiao again did not seem as difficult as he subconsciously thought.
He couldn't take this step in his heart.
Yunli is not good at socializing, but tonight she "clumsily" created many opportunities for him to untie his knot and took this step for him.
He looked at the milk in his hand, opened a new bag and took a sip.
The phone rang. It was a video call from his father Fu Dongsheng. He answered it. Chen Jinping's face was also in the camera. The two chatted with him for a while and then got straight to the point.
"Son, I heard you're in love."
